I am so happy Anita and Cal are back for their own story. They were my favorite secondary characters in Witchfished and I was hopeful they would somehow reunite. I wasn’t expecting it to be in the classroom, but it worked well. I do really want to learn more about what Anita was learning in that class, as the topic was interesting, but I’m glad it reconnected her with Cal. 

I love the effort that (mostly) everyone in Anita’s life goes to so she has a chance at being happy despite the circumstances. Between trying to control her wolf and Cal reappearing in her life, there’s a ton that could (and does) go wrong, but she’s never without the support of her family and friends. 

There was even more worldbuilding in this second novella, and I loved all of it. The mystery of this story is a bit darker I think, since it has more implications and is related to what I would compare to big pharma, and I enjoyed seeing how that was incorporated.
